Controlling optical responses through local dielectric resonance in nanometre metallic clusters

Optical responses in dilute composites are controlled through the local dielectric resonance of metallic clusters. We consider two located metallic clusters close to each other with admittances \varepsilon₁ and \varepsilon₂. Through varying the difference admittance ratio \eta [ = (\varepsilon₂- \varepsilon ₀) / (\varepsilon₁- \varepsilon₀)], we find that their optical responses are determined by the local resonance. There is a blueshift of absorption peaks with the increase of \eta. Simultaneously, it is known that the absorption peaks will be redshifted by enlarging the cluster size. By adjusting the nano-metallic cluster geometry, size and admittances, we can control the positions and intensities of absorption peaks effectively. We have also deduced the effective linear optical responses of three-component composites \varepsilon_e= \varepsilon₀ \bigl(1 + \sum_n=1^{n_s} [(\gamma_n2+ \eta \gamma_n2)/({\varepsilon₀(s - s_n))]} \bigr), and the sum rule of cross sections: \sum_n=1^{n_s} {(\gamma_n2+ \eta \gamma_n2 ) = N_h1+ N_h2, where N_h1and N_h2 are the numbers of \varepsilon₁ and \varepsilon₂ bonds along the electric field, respectively. These results may be beneficial to the study of surface plasmon resonances on a nanometre scale.

Estimation of temperature elevation generated by ultrasonic irradiation in biological tissues using the thermal wave method

In most previous models,simulation of the temperature generation in tissue is based on the Pennes bio-heat transfer equation,which implies an instantaneous thermal energy deposition in the medium.Due to the long thermal relaxation time τ(20 s-30 s) in biological tissues,the actual temperature elevation during clinical treatments could be different from the value predicted by the Pennes bioheat equation.The thermal wave model of bio-heat transfer(TWMBT) defines a thermal relaxation time to describe the tissue heating from ultrasound exposure.In this paper,COMSOL Multiphysics 3.5a,a finite element method software package,is used to simulate the temperature response in tissues based on Pennes and TWMBT equations.We further discuss different factors in the bio-heat transfer model on the influence of the temperature rising and it is found that the temperature response in tissue under ultrasound exposure is a rising process with a declining rate.The thermal relaxation time inhibits the temperature elevation at the beginning of ultrasonic heating.Besides,thermal relaxation in TWMBT leads to lower temperature estimation than that based on Pennes equation during the same period of time.The blood flow carrying heat dominates most to the decline of temperature rising rate and the influence increases with temperature rising.On the contrary,heat diffusion,which can be described by thermal conductivity,has little effect on the temperature rising.

Analysis of the Coaxial Ridge-Loaded Helical Groove Waveguide

The coaxial ridge-loaded helical groove waveguide is proposed in this paper. As an all-metal slow-wave circuit, it has advantages of good heat dissipation and great size, and thus is suitable for use of millimeter TWT. By means of field theory, the expressions of the dispersion equation and the coupling impedance of the coaxial ridge-loaded helical groove waveguide are obtained. The influence of various circuit dimensions on the dispersion relation and the coupling impedance is investigated by the results of numerical computation.     

Synthesis and luminescence of a novel conjugated europium complex with 6-parachloroaniline carbonyl 2-pyridine carboxylic acid

A novel organic ligand, 6-parachloroaniline carbonyl 2-pyridine carboxylic acid, and the corresponding europium complex, tris(6-parachloroaniline carbonyl-2-pyridine carboxylate) europium (III) have been designed and synthesized. The results showed that the synthesized product was a conjugated complex, emitting remarkable strong red luminescence, and was a good red luminescence material with good thermal stability. The ⁵D₀ lifetime of Eu³⁺ in the complex was examined using time-resolved spectroscopic analysis. The lifetime values for 1.0×10⁻⁵ mol/l ethanol solution of the complex and for the complex solid were 0.49±0.01 and 1.94±0.01 ms, respectively.

Rational Design of Two-Dimensional Magnetic Chromium Borides Based on First-Principles Calculation

Two-dimensional(2D) magnetic materials have been experimentally recognized recently,however,the Curie temperatures(TC) of known 2D systems are quite low.Generally,magnetic systems can be seen as constituent magnetic elements providing spins and the non-magnetic elements providing frameworks to host the magnetic elements.Short bond lengths between the magnetic and non-magnetic elements would be beneficial for strong magnetic interactions and thus high TC.Based on this,we propose to combine the magnetic element Cr and the non-magnetic element boron to design novel 2D magnetic systems.Using our self-developed software package IM2 ODE,we design a series of chromium-boride based 2D magnetic materials.Nine stable magnetic systems are identified.Among them,we find that CrB4-Ⅰ,CrB4-Ⅱ and CrBs-Ⅰ with common structural units [CrB8] are ferromagnetic metals with estimated TC of 270 K,120 K and 110 K,respectively.On the other hand,five CrB3 phases with structural units [Cr2B12] are antiferromagnetic metals.Additionally,we also find one antiferromagnetic semiconductor CrB2-Ⅰ.Our work may open new directions for identifying 2D magnetic systems with high TC.

Time-varying human mobility patterns with metapopulation epidemic dynamics

In this paper, explicitly considering the influences of an epidemic outbreak on human travel, a time-varying human mobility pattern is introduced to model the time variation of global human travel. The impacts of the pattern on epidemic dynamics in heterogeneous metapopulation networks, wherein each node represents a subpopulation with any number of individuals, are investigated by using a mean-field approach. The results show that the pattern does not alter the epidemic threshold, but can slightly lower the final average density of infected individuals as a whole. More importantly, we also find that the pattern produces different impacts on nodes with different degree, and that there exists a critical degree _kc$k_c$. For nodes with degree smaller than _kc$k_c$, the pattern produces a positive impact on epidemic mitigation; conversely, for nodes with degree larger than _kc$k_c$, the pattern produces a negative impact on epidemic mitigation.
